Thank you for your support. Clare and I were interviewed for ITV news regarding this yesterday, and it looks like the interview will be aired on the 6 pm news tomorrow, Fri 28th October.

Clare is now waiting for a gene test from the laboratory so the consultant can prepare her treatment according to this gene testing. Clare is booked in on the 2nd of November; however, if the gene test doesn't come back, Clare's appointment will be cancelled and, sadly, will be delayed again! It has now been over 3months, and still no treatment or official diagnosis. The nurse said, 'She hopes' it will be back! Well, "Hoping'' is not good enough! Meanwhile, Clare's tumours are growing, and it is a lot of pressure on her physically and mentally now. The only thing which has been said to Clare is by a nurse calling her up and said "you do realise your cancer has spread, and you are going to have to face it'' A consultant should be discussing these with Clare with a specialist support nurse in the room. 

The Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman called me today, and we are now all waiting on the NHS trust to give a statement.
